Backing track similar to Riviera Paradise?

[ontariomaximus]

Was listening to SRV's Riviera Paradise this morning and would love to find some backing tracks in that vein. Any suggestions?

I have quite a few of those. Not bad stuff.
How about regular music that falls into the Riviera Paradise category? I'd like to get a few CD's in that particular style.
Here is a live version of the song for those of you unfamiliar:

Maybe some Kenny Burrell, Grant Green.

There's a backing track of "Riviera Paradise" available from total accuracy.......

Yeah, there's one on the GuitarBT site. That's what I was thinking. But, I think the OP is just looking for similar tunes. I guess, slower Jazzy/Bluesy grooves.

Why not just make a backing track, or play it in a chord melody fashion, that way you get to explore
the harmonic side of this tune.

Thinking in a series of ii V's decending by whole steps will get you through about 2/3 of the tune.

Anyway, playing it solo will give you "sea legs".

Also, backing tracks are non responsive and that drives me nuts. After one or two times through I
can't stand the rigidness and start destroying anything I can grab hold of. lol

Digital recording is so cheap these days. Just bought a Tascam DP-004 4-track for $150.
